That's the only response the signs should generate from us. We don't want them fixed, we want them gone.

Not even, I just like to piss them off for being tards.
Let these businesses show their hand in the game, then I can avoid them all together. Follow the money, Costco dumps tons of money into the DLF and moveon.org. They don't get my business. That's just one example.
Besides, give the criminals sancuary in these businesses; it keeps them out of the ones I patronize.

I've been in the Jared stores in Maplewood, Maple Grove, and Edina, but not for a few years. An ex-gf liked to shop and browse there. I never bought anything there and never will.
My problem with Jared posting their stores is not so much with the questionable legality of the signs, but the hypocrisy. Each Jared store that I've been in has an armed security guard present during business hours. Customers aren't supposed to carry in the store, but they hire someone to carry a gun for them.

You carry cards that say no guns no cash why not cards also that say thank you for letting us use your establishment while carrying or using the 2A? Just to reinforce the business on keeping it that way? just my thoughts smaller community I don't have to worry about not going to many places that ban guns mainly the court house.

Do they have horribly annoying commercials that play over and over though?

This gesture could easily backfire. The absence of a "bans guns" sign doesn't necessarily mean you're dealing with a pro-gun business. They probably just haven't given it any thought.
